Jerry Hairston to the Bronx

Today, the Yankees acquired Utility man Jerry Hairston Jr. from the Reds for minor league catcher Chase Weems.

Jerry Hairston Jr. started off as a second basemen for the Orioles and turned himself into one of the most versatile players in the game. He is a speedster with great fielding ability. He hustles like none other and has some hitting skill. Hairston is in no doubt a playoff team's most valuable bench player.

Weems sucks. 

Okay, that may be a little harsh, but he is 5th in line to be the catcher of the Yankees. BEHIND Joe Girardi.

Winner: Yankees.

They got a good Utility man for nothing. Good for them.
